For years, cab aggregators, shared mobility transport providers and long-haul transport facilities have been trying to implement in-ride entertainment technologies into their vehicles, which would allow users to watch movies & videos while stuck in traffic. But this always came to them with additional hardware cost of either a power dependent Wifi-box or expensive tablets loaded with videos which coupled with Network buffering issues were unable to provide a seamless experience.

What differentiates VuScreenTM is that you no longer have TV screens or tablets in front of your seat. Instead, it lets you stream exciting range of short format videos, regional content, News, famous TV shorts and music to suit every mood and taste, directly to your personal screen.

This led the team to push the boundaries of smartphone technology and create a disruption with our on-the-go entertainment platform VuScreenTM, where a customer can enjoy even an HD video experience without any interruptions created due to cellular network.

Creating the new definition for In-Ride entertainment with VuScreenTM, we are extremely delighted to partner with Shuttl and are confident, that this initiative will appeal to all our guests, especially the millennials who are always looking for uninterrupted entertainment on the move.
